This extension is the official top level domain of Germany.
There is no specific procedure related to the registration of a domain name.
.DE domain names are allocated on a "first come, first served" basis.
If the holder or the administrative contact is not domiciled in Germany (P.O. boxes are not allowed), you must be able to appoint an authorised representative, located in Germany, who can receive official or judicial documents on his behalf. This information must be provided within 2 weeks upon request by DENIC.
In order to transfer your domain name to Netim, you must disable transfer protections and obtain the authorisation code from your current Registrar.
The transfer may take several days.
Once finalised, a new subscription period is started. The domain name will expire one year after the transfer's effective date.
To change the holder, you must first go through an authentication process.
To that end, validation emails will be sent to both current and future domain holders.
After a period of 5 days, the request will be cancelled.
The domain expiration date is not affected by the transfer process.
Each action on a domain name is managed in our system with an operation. Here are the types of operations supported by this extension. Please note that you can use these operations with our SOAP and REST APIs.
